Date night review

Rated 15. Date night is one of the weidest comedies out there. Blending mostly not-that-funny comedy, rather unexciting action into a dull and formalaic action plot... We have got to be heading for trouble...

Date night has 2 very talented leads. The imensely likable Steve Carrell and Tina Fey. They are the source of laughs in this rather unfunny comedy. There are some funny bits and one bit is a tiny bit exciting. The acting from the leads is what generates the laughs, as well as  good direction.

Date night has a very odd plot. A bored couple go to a resturant and then, thanks to the husband's stupidity, get caught in a case of mistaken identity. What an empty plot! And then a shortage of laughs. The screenplay is poorly written, overloaded with crude dialoge instead of the unpredictable humour a comedy like this desperatley needs to excuse the stupid plot.

Date night is just an odd, unexciting and poorly written comedy. It is such a waste of Steve Carrell and Tina Fey's talent. This movie is aimless too. 2010 is not a very good year in comedy. This mediocore movie is further proof. FAIL! 1 and a half stars out of 5.
